Hi,
Using the template AGS reference material on a Archicad Curtain Wall is resulting in Triangles on the façade (gold and Grey glass). I wonder if it has anything to do with the Caustics channel being turned off. On the other hand, the same material is applied to the simple wall (100mm-Green Glass) and the result is quite different. Interesting to note is that the glass material inside the white boxes are straight from the archicad material AGS preset and did not have the same Curtain wall problem, but they look very frosted.
The Archicad Curtain Wall tool have a real construction geometry with 10mm glazing panels. (see image below)
Is is a material problem? Having a single plane glassing is out of the question because we would like to render form the current working file.
What would be the solution?
